Growing Everywhere
by Tianna Griffin
In this hands-on lesson, students illustrate and find the area and perimeter of the rockwool pattern. They also create an expression to represent the number of seeds needed to plant their rockwool pattern.
Once this is complete, students plant a rockwool garden and observe growth over 7 weeks. They will illustrate the process of photosynthesis and explain how a tower garden operates.
